Club members often highlight issues with Motorway Service Areas to us, sometimes with positive comments, sadly quite often with concerns over things like caravan parking provisions. We’ve raised these concerns at National Towing Working Group* meetings, and in response, there’s now an opportunity to give your views on how you use Service Areas, and what your experience has been:

https://www.snapsurveys.com/wh/s.asp?k=152145866477

The survey is anonymous, and should only take around 5 minutes.

This survey will give us the opportunity to get your views directly into the regular discussions held between Highways England and the Service Area operators. Please note, you can give feedback on your experiences throughout the UK, not just with Service Areas in England, though.

 

* About the National Towing Working Group: The Club works closely with Highways England on a range of issues including road safety, congestion reduction and journey planning. One initiative they facilitate is the National Towing Working Group, bringing together many organisations and representatives from the whole towing sector, not just caravans. The group members work together to pool knowledge, research and expertise to come up with initiatives which will improve the safety and experience of towing road users on the strategic road network.

Probably LVs spend most of their time in the actual service area in the toilets than spend money ,as do the majority of HGVs as they all tend to carry refreshments on board ,and have just stopped for a comfort  break or HGVs legal break

If there prices weren't extortionate, I'm sure much more would be spent.

By who?coach parties and car drivers and passengers are their target I would think others are just a legal necessity

In light of the current thread about Gloucester service station parking bays, I remembered that we are still awaiting, thankfully without bated breath, for the results of this survey. 

Can Rowenna just confirm to us that we shouldn't bother ourselves asking about it anymore as we're not to be kept informed. Will save time wondering.

Ditto.  Perhaps if more of us chase Rowena for the results then this thread will be locked too wink

Rowena has never replied to any of my recent (dog/moderator) emails so doubt she'll reply to this .....

Fair comment re this survey David, but Rowena doesn't seem to reply to any questions as MollysM says, yet she continues to assume that we are happy to answer her questions. That's a bit one-way and isn't helpful.  It begs the question, does Rowena actually exist or is 'she' automated?  surprised

I can assure everyone that Rowena does exist, and from time to time Rowena and other members of staff do make comments here on Club Together.
